Which motor - J-Dub - 01-21-2008
it says on the Nova site, that the 3port Novarossi 21B can only have a max of 25% Nitro, and 10% oil. so saying I run, 30% byrons with 11% oil, will I be pretty much spelling death for the motor? or...is it okay?

my p5 and my 528 both said that i run byrons 30% (soon to be werks)without any problems. you should be fine

You try that new Byrons? the stuff is wicked.
lol I had my TRX like...not tuned well running around 200 or so.
It like dropped it to 180 on a tank
it was insane.

i was going to run new byrons but for the price of a case of werks at mu cost its worth the change

i run 30% TQ with 9% oil in my BF....SCREAMS!!! LOL

I just like byrons, it leaves so much oil in the case there is no need for after-run procedures, besides burning up the rest of the fuel. lol
Also, the BF is the same NOVA as the one I posted right? Its not been made clear and im kinda like 'WTF MATES!?'

If u r new to buggy and for inside running the O.S. VG does just fine. Will get left behind a lil on the long straight tho. The entent depends on tuned pipe choice. If you cant use a $300 race engine to its potential, better to leave the $$$ in ur pocket and ur buggy on its wheels.
Never had the Nova so I can't comment on that one.
Probably cant go wrong with either one.

I figure for an extra 30 bucks it was fine. its a sport nova. I dont think it will go insane like some I have seen. Though I do admire Novarossi Quality and they have alot of good testimonial.
The real kick is, I dont want to get the Same engine as my friend, we'll have the same buggy/Engine if i do Lol

So I've heard good crazy things about the Mugen 1005 pipe. What kinds of wonders does it do to this motor, its one of the reccomendations on Amain
